The effects of propanoic acid on ethanol production were examined in cassava mash under different pH conditions. Final ethanol concentrations increased when undissociated propanoic acid was <30.0 mmol·L-1 . Propanoic acid, however, stimulated ethanol production, as much as 7.6% under proper conditions, but ethanol fermentation was completely inhibited when undissociated acid was >53.2 mmol·L-1 . Therefore, the potential inhibitory effect of propanoic acid on ethanol fermentation may be avoided by controlling the undissociated acid concentrations through elevated medium pH. Biomass and glycerol production decreased with propanoic acid in the medium, partly contributing to increased ethanol concentration.展开更多

Adsorption kinetics, isotherms and the effect ofpH were studied. The results indicated that the biosorption of Cd^2+ and Cu^2+ on the immobilized S. cerevisiae was fast at initial stage and then became slow. The maximum biosorption of heavy metal ions on immobilized S. cerevisiae were observed at pH 4 for Cde+ and Cu^2+. by the pseudo-second-order model described the sorption kinetic data well according to the high correlation coefficient (R2) obtained. The biosorption isotherm was fitted well by the Langmuir model, indicating possible mono-layer biosorption of Cd^2+ and Cu^2+ on the immobilized S. cerevisiae. Moreover, the immobilized S. cerevisiae after the sorption of Cd^2+ and Cu^2+ could be regenerated and reused.展开更多

Here we report the rapid construction of biosynthetic pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using a marker recyclable integrative toolbox (pUMRI) devel- oped in our research group, which has features of ready-to- use, convenient marker recycling, arbitrary element replacement, shuttle plasmid, auxotrophic marker inde- pendence, GAL regulation, and decentralized assembly. Functional isoprenoid biosynthesis pathways containing 4-11 genes with lengths ranging from -10 to -22 kb were assembled using this toolbox within 1-5 rounds of reiterative recombination. In combination with GAL- regulated metabolic engineering, high production of isoprenoids (e.g., 16.3 mg.g-1 dcw carotenoids)was achieved. These results demonstrate the wide range of application and the efficiency of the pUMRI toolbox in multigene pathway construction of S. cerevisiae.展开更多
